When the wheel arrived he was tickled pink. It looked pretty good. It rode fair- ly well. Things Began to Happen But--after a few weeks, things began to happen. The enamel started to chip, the nickeling to rust, and the machine began to run hard. A Iot of pressure was needed on the pedals to hit up any speed. The chain didn't seem to run true around the sprockets. There was a grind- ing and clicking noise. Then worse happened. Some- thing broke! The bargain bicycle wouldn't go. He had to push it home: Left to Shift for Himself Ed wanted to send the wheel back to be repaired. But he found it needed some new parts. And the store was out of those particular parts, They would have to send away for them. There would be a delay of at least three weeks, and perhaps longer. To save time, Ed was told he would be wiser to have the special parts he needed made to order--a costly iob. No, the store didn't take orders of that kind. Nor could they advise definitely where to go to get the job done. Ed was left to shift for himself. You could hardly blame him for say- ing, "I thought I was getting a bargain, but I got stung instead." Take heed of Ed Jones' experience and avoid "cheap" bargain bicycles, if you don't want to get "stung." Choose a wheel that the manufactur. ers and the dealers all stand behind-- the C.C.M. Bicycle. Over 1,000 Service Stations If any repairs are ever required on a C.C.M. Bicycle, there is always a C.C.M. Service Station within easy reach--over 1,000 of them in Canada, where repair parts are obtainable at reasonable cost, and intelligent repair service given. But a C.C.M. Bicycle hardly ever re- quires repairs. It is built of the moat lasting steel and other materials, The parts are made as accurately as those used in the finest motor cars. A C.C.M. Bicycle runs with watch-like smoothness and it continues to sum easily for years and years, 10 to 15 Years in Use There are C.C.M. Bicycles in use today that are running smoothly and casily after 10 to 15 years of service. And the 1923 C.C.M. Bicycles are the best we have ever turned out. Even the famous C.C.M. Triplex Hanger has been improved, making the C.C.M. a still more "peppy" bicycle. The Triplex turns with wenderful ease and smoothness -- gives you power to burn, ss - . - The New Pedal There's the new Gibson Pedal, too with its silvery, rust-proof aluminum frame and its generous-size rubbers that grip the foot perfectly. A wonderfully light, yet very strong, pedal. And there's the New Hercules Brake -- the soft, velvety brake that coasts farther, and has no clumsy side-arm. English Seamless Tubing, too -- the kind that makes a powerful, rigid frame. And don't forget, each C.C.M. Bicyele is coated with a brilliant, durable enamel and has its bright parts nickeled over copper so they won't rust. It may cost you a few dollars more for a real, honest-to-goodness bicycle than for a bargain, but it won't take long for the repair bills to cat up the differ- ence. And just think, too, of the extra long years of service the staunch, faith- ful C.C.M. Bicycle will give you, $15 to $20 Less - 3 Step into the C.C.M. dealer's and glimpse the new 1923 models for men, women, boys and girls. They are $15 to $20 less than the "peak" war prices.
